I did not care for the hot cocoa they sell in their stores, but this hot cocoa - The best ever. I mix it with milk for a creamier hot cocoa even though the directions say to mix with water. Add a little whipped topping and you have a great winter warmer!

Starbucks has a real winner here. This hot chocolate mix is outstanding! Frankly I have tried many mixes but this one hits all the right notes. I especially like it using two cappuccino creamers from my Tassimo. A quick whip, some mini marshmallows and wow...Creamy, chocolatey and delicious hot cocoa!

Based on a recommendation from my daughter, I bought this online since you can't find it in the stores. It is by far the best tasting hot cocoa out there. The individual packets makes it easy to prepare in the Keurig. Nice large box with plenty enough to share. A must add to my Starbucks subscription.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I'm currently stationed in Afghanistan and cannot be with my family for Christmas, therefore it was super important to me that I send my family things that they would enjoy. They loved the cocoa and I'm grateful that Starbucks produced such a wonderful product.

I bought this for my kids but it's little darker in taste. Might want to add some milk or extra marshmallows in there. I had to throw out few packages even before I opened them because the packaging was of poor quality. Because the packet it comes in is made out of stiff paper, it created a rip on the bottom fold of few packages.
Yes, I recommend this product.

This is the best hot chocolate mix I have ever had! The very short list of ingredients was a nice added benifit. I did make it with milk, like I always make my hot chocolate.

This is the richest flavor of all of the cocoa flavors, but if you are planning on using a 16 oz mug, you will need to use 2 packets. Perfect with milk! Also, it is nice to add in one of the flavored cocoas with this for overall satisfaction.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Starbucks gourmet hot cocoa is rich and chocolaty and not overly sweet. Outside of Italy, where the hot chocolate is like warm thick chocolate pudding, it is the best I've ever tasted. I have a cup at work almost every day.

I've loved Starbucks hot chocolate every since I first tasted it at the Grand Hyatt in NYC years ago. It doesn't work to get it in a regular Starbucks, too often the water they use tastes of coffee so you end up with a sort of mocha. Buy a box of these single-serve packets, it comes to about $2/cup. Make it at home with good clean hot water in a 6oz teacup. It is rich and dark and chocolatey, just the best!
Yes, I recommend this product.
